Just curious:

There is one auto-loading alias in the module for the serio bus:
  $ modinfo wacom_w8001 | grep alias
  alias:          serio:ty02pr39id*ex*

Does that work? For all devices or only a few?
Can the serial device be detected that way?
Does inputattach talk to the device to find out what it is?

Thanks,
Kay
